Toys"R"Us Closing It's Stores DownPosted by Richard on March 15, 2018 at 07:03 PM CST:
This morning I heard the news that Toys"R"us will be shutting down for good. While I have mixed feelings about their emphasis of the word "suggested" in MSRP, I have more good memories of the chain than bad. It's not all bad I suppose, maybe we will get some discounted LEGO&reg sets out of it. Forum link.

A BIONICLEŽ Song From Another AgePosted by Richard on March 4, 2018 at 08:12 PM CST:
Paul Hardcastle composed a number of songs for The LEGO Group as part of a deal with Universal Studios. One of these songs, titled "Bionicle Age", was left unused and later published in a stock album under the name "Bionic Age". BioMedia Project has recently archived the song to help it get the attention it deserves. You can see more of Paul's work here. Forum link.
